Puppet Master: Doktor Death picture

Factual error: April arrives for her first day of work at "Shady Oaks Senior Living" and sees Max, the resident who passed away the night before, being wheeled out on a stretcher with his head uncovered. A deceased person's entire body would be covered by the sheet. (00:03:14)

The Requin picture

Continuity mistake: The amount of Kyle's facial hair changes (i.e, grows too much/fast) from the beginning of the scene when he is on the rock talking to Jaelyn to the end of the scene when he is standing in the water. Kyle's facial hair is back to its lesser amount when he is in the villa; it isn't clear how much time has passed, but it doesn't appear to be much. (00:17:06 - 00:20:28)

Amityville Uprising picture

Factual error: Sam Cooper's Rx label was for Alprazolam (generic Xanax) 2 mg, qty #150, refill 2x, and "take 1 tablet by mouth as needed." "Must last _" length was not visible and there could have been warning stickers (may cause drowsiness) on the other side. However, Xanax is a fast-acting tranquilizer which should last 6 hours and the dosage should not exceed 10 mg per day. The instructions to "take 1 tablet by mouth as needed" should have had restrictions attached to prevent serious side-effects/death. (00:49:38)

Fallen picture

Deliberate mistake: Abraham is sitting to the right of and slightly behind the cross he hammered into the ground, but is about 3' away. When there is a close-up, Abraham is much closer to the cross - the end of the crossbar to the right is directly above his shoulder and his knees appear to be close to the vertical bar. (00:45:15)

Family Dinner picture

Continuity mistake: Simi enters the bedroom and the upper half of the bedspread is smooth. Aunt Claudia is holding a book with both hands, so she is not touching the bed. The front (somewhat aerial) view of the bed shows that the upper part of the bedspread has multiple ripples. (00:17:55 - 00:18:42)

American Carnage picture

Revealing mistake: Lily was sitting in the back seat of Andrea's small sedan with her head out the window. Part of Lily's friend's upper left body could be seen to her right but the rest of her body was made to appear as though the door frame was blocking it from view. In alternate shots, the friend's upper body is side-by-side with Lily's - but no sedan has a window that wide, the door frame was not there, and the friend would not be able to sit in a back seat like she was because of the driver's seat. (00:06:43 - 00:07:06)

The Loneliest Boy in the World picture

Continuity mistake: The car behind Julius is at various distances. It is closer when the camera is on Julius than when it switches (back and forth) to his passenger, Margot. (00:02:39)

Remember Me picture

Factual error: Rose's legs were paralyzed, but when she was dragging herself on the floor, she occasionally used her feet to help propel her body forward (and moved her feet downward) - something she would not be able to do if her legs were paralyzed. (00:33:40)

Dark Glasses picture

Revealing mistake: When inspector Gerry Baldacci gets in the way of the white van (as if there were a single white van in all of Italy), you can see on the asphalt the single distinct tire marks of the perfect size and path from previous takes. (00:43:00)

The Reef: Stalked picture

Continuity mistake: The amount of wine in Annie's glass (as well as Nic's) decreases then increases without her adding any. Annie had almost one-half a glass of wine when she poured some into Nic's glass, then it was closer to one-fourth full. A little later, Annie's glass appeared to have the amount she initially had when she approached Nic. (00:13:59)

Blight picture

Revealing mistake: Luke points a flashlight along the side of the staircase, but no shadows are produced on the wall from the vertical posts. Luke points the flashlight in front of himself and produces his shadow on the wall behind (and the shadow doesn't look like the way he is holding the flashlight). After Luke goes through the entryway aiming his flashlight ahead, a circle of light is behind him. The power is out, so the flashlight is the only light source - except that used for filming in the dark. (01:03:00 - 01:05:25)
